Hello - I am brand new to Upwork and just went to submit a proposal for the first time. I finished my cover letter, hit submit and got an error message saying "Sorry, we were unable to save your application. Please contact support." I've searched around a bit, but can't seem to come up with why this is happening. I'd appreciate any insight!

I am fairly new as well and currently receiving the same message 'unable to save application'. I was just wondering if you were able to find out what was the reason for this alert. I went to Upwork Help Center but was unable to get through. Would be grateful for any insight.

I believe I found a reason for this. When I finished writing my cover letter and hit the ‘Submit a Proposal’ button, I got the attached message. I went back to my job feed and discovered that the post was no longer there (maybe someone was hired because there were two interviewees when I decided to apply). If this is the case, I think your developers should pay more attention to this so we get a message if the post stops being available while we're applying for it.
